EXPLANATION 

Some years ago I issued a small illustrated leaflet 
entitled "Ten Minutes' Exercise for Busy Men." These 
exercises were aimed to secure health, not at any particular 
form of muscular development or skill. They aimed to 
affect a man in his most important parts, that is, his 
digestion, his circulation and his respiration. 

If a man gets plenty of good food, and his digestive 
apparatus works it up into good rich blood; if the heart is 
strong and regular so that this good blood goes to all 
parts of the body with vigor and regularity, and if the 
respiratory and excretory apparatus is in such good order 
that this blood is kept pure, the fundamental conditions 
of health are laid. 

It is not so important to have big muscles as it is to 
have good digestion; it is not so important to have 
])Owerful muscles as it is to have a strong, regular heart : 
it is not so important to have great skill with one 's 
muscles as to have good lungs and kidneys. 

These exercises, entitled "Ten Minutes' Exercise for 
Busy Men," aimed at health. The experience of years 
has demonstrated the efficiency of these exercises in 
securing the ends for which they were devised. Many 
letters have been written by men, testifying to the great 
benefit which they have secured from these few minutes 
of simple but vigorous work. 

Since the publication of this leaflet the correspondence 
schools of physical training have come into great activity . 
Their general aim is to build up big muscles. A somewhat 
careful investigation of them satisfies me that they are 
inferior to the exercises in this drill for purposes of build- 
ing up vigor and manliness. 



One of the most vigorous claims of some of these schools, 
namely, that the heart particularly is benefited by their 
work, is false, lor I have had case after case of men whose 
hearts have been injured by taking the correspondence 
schools' work when they were not in condition for it. 

The exercises in this pamphlet are recommended with 
the confidence of long, successful use. The results secured 
are better than those possible from the correspondence 
school work in the specific directions mentioned. There 
has been an expressed desire for added variety; accord- 
ingly my associate, Mr. Hepbron, has prepared similar 
exercises to be taken with simple apparatus — wands, 
dumb-bells, chest-weights and Indian clubs — and I hope 
that equally good results will be secured from these 
additional drills.

Jump out of bed; strip. If the floor is cold, put on a 
pair of thick, warm stockings. 

No. I.— ARM CIRCLES. 

Ten times. 

Fill your lungs before each exercise; arms at side on 
level with shoulders ; describe a circle one foot in diameter 
with the arms while they are in this position; ten circles 
in five seconds. 

Rest a second; repeat exercise; rest; repeat; keep on 
until you have repeated five times. 

Put lots of snap into your work; breathe deep five 
seconds. Take in all the air you can; let out all the air 
you can.

PLATE II.— FREE WORK. 

Xo. 5.— BENDER. 

Thirty times, thirty seconds. 
Go way down ; come up straight. 
Breathe deep five seconds. 

Xo. 6.— STATIONARY RUN. 
One and a half to three minutes. 
Begin and end slow. 
Run fast in the middle oi the time. 

Lift your feet high; if constipated, run with your knees 
up in front at every step. 

Xo. 7. 

Take off vour stockings; wring out a towel in cold 
water; rub all over; take your Turkish towel by both ends, 
and rub hard. If you are chilly afterwards, the water 
was too cold; the cooler it is, the better, if you are warm 
afterwards. 

Get dressed, and go to breakfast. If you can take 
twice this exercise, it will be better. Commence gradually ; 
use long rests and few movements at first. If you don't 
you will be lame. You can easily prove this. 

Xo. 8. 

Take this same exercise just before going to bed, only 
don't hurry. 

If it keeps you awake, take it only in the morning.

These movements were specially selected to correct 
defects incident to school and office work, correct flat 
chest, round shoulders, forward head, regulate digestion 
and assist nature in the elimination of the waste products 
of the system, and in conjunction with the bath to pro- 
duce that buoyant feeling which makes life worth living. 
Enter into the exercises with your whole being sc as to 
produce copious perspiration. 

Never exercise within two hours after eating.
